SUMMARY:Perceptions of Risk: How We Manage Emergencies
DESCRIPTION:\n Fitts Auditorium\, University of Pennsylvania Law School\n\n\n The study of risk management across a variety of domains is an essential part of policymaking today. From public health to national security\, market analysis\, and natural disaster emergency response\, the question of how to assess and to respond to risks is of the utmost importance. \;\n\n\n \;Important questions pertaining to the public perception include: \;\n\n\n Does the public perceive risks accurately or are public perceptions distorted by cognitive biases?\n \n Should public perceptions of risk be taken into account in risk management plans even if they seem "irrational"? \;\n \n Should preparedness for disasters follow the same template as management of more ordinary risks? \;\n \n Should the management of risk in the public sector differ from that in the private?\n \n Should the risk of natural disasters\, such as hurricanes\, be handled in the same way as the risk of human threats\, such as terrorism or criminal activity? \;\n \n Does a serious threat that persists over a protracted period of time\, such as a daily threat of terrorism\, still count as a security emergency?\n \n When are restrictions of civil liberties\, such as quarantines or preventive restraint\, justified to pre-empt risk of harm to the general public?\n \n\n\n The purpose of this Symposium is to foster multi-disciplinary and inter-professional conversation about risk perception and strategies of emergency management. The panelists will engage in a conversation about emergency preparedness and how our perceptions of risk factor into those efforts.\n\n\n Panelists:\n\n\n Professor P.J. Brennan\, M.D. – Chief Medical Officer and Senior Vice President for the University of Pennsylvania Health System.\n\n\n Lieutenant General (Ret.) Russel Honoré – Led the Department of Defense Task Force in response to Hurricane Katrina.\n\n\n Professor Dan Kahan – Elizabeth K. Dollard Professor of Law and Professor of Psychology at Yale Law School\, specializing in risk perception.\n\n\n Vice President Maureen Rush\, M.S.\, CPP – Vice President for Public Safety\, University of Pennsylvania.\n\n\n Moderator:\n\n\n Professor Claire Finkelstein\, Algernon Biddle Professor of Law and Professor of Philosophy\, Founder and Director of the Center for Ethics and the Rule of Law\n\n\n Reception to follow.\n\n\n This program has been approved for 2.0 credit hours ethics for Pennsylvania attorneys. \; CLE credit may be available in other jurisdictions as well. Attendees seeking CLE credit should bring separate payment in the amount of $30.00 cash or check made payable to The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania.\n

SUMMARY:The Center for Ethics and the Rule of Law presents "Counterproductive Coalitions"
DESCRIPTION:\n Sarah Chayes\, author of Thieves of State: Why Corruption Threatens Global Security\, served as special assistant to the top U.S. military officer\, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Admiral Mike Mullen. \; She participated in Cabinet-level decision-making on Afghanistan\, Pakistan and the Arab Spring\, traveling with Mullen frequently to the region. \; He tapped Chayes for the job after her work as special advisor to two commanders of the international troops in Afghanistan (ISAF)\, Generals David McKiernan and Stanley McChrystal. \; She contributed her unique knowledge of the Afghan south to the ISAF command. \;\n\n\n It was a sense of historic opportunity that prompted Chayes to renounce her journalism career in early 2002\, after covering the fall of the Taliban for National Public Radio\, and to remain in Afghanistan to help rebuild the country. \; She chose to settle in the former Taliban heartland\, Kandahar. \;\n\n\n In 2005\, Chayes founded Arghand\, a start-up manufacturing cooperative\, where men and women working together produce fine skin-care products for export. \; (www.arghand.org) \; The goal was to revive the region's historic role in exporting fruit and its derivatives\, to promote sustainable development\, and expand alternatives to the opium economy. \; Running Arghand in downtown Kandahar proved to an extraordinary vantage point for observing the unfolding war.\n\n\n From 1996-2001\, Chayes was NPR Paris correspondent. \; For her work during the Kosovo crisis\, she shared the 1999 Foreign Press Club and Sigma Delta Chi awards. \;\n\n\n She is now a senior associate at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace\, in the Democracy and Rule of Law and South Asia programs. \; Her work focuses on the security implications of acute corruption.\n\n\n Along with Thieves of State\, Chayes is is the author of The Punishment of Virtue: Inside Afghanistan After the Taliban (Penguin\, 2006) and contributes to The Los Angeles Times\, The Washington Post\, Foreign Policy\, and Defense One among other publications. \;\n\n\n \;\n\n\n This program has been approved for 1.5 ethics credits for Pennsylvania lawyers. CLE credits may be available in other jurisdictions as well. Attendees seeking CLE credit should bring separate payment in the amount of $30.00 cash or check made payable to The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania.\n\n\n \;\n\n\n CLE Reading link: https://www.law.upenn.edu/live/files/4212-cleveland-et-al-trends-in-the-international-fight\n\n\n \;\n
